Hi Jennifer, with your Sunday Concert CD, may I suggest, you give a good listen to,"Ballad Of The Yarmouth Castle."

If you have the lyrics, follow them as well. That is one great piece of songwriting. He could have finish the song earlier, and it would have still told the story in it's entirety. Once again it shows the genius mind, this man has, to write a good song. "What a guy, he's simply the best."

Let me know what you think... ~Jesse~
